ESPONSIBILITIES 

 

Safe operation of the oven is dependent on the actions and behavior of the oven operators. 

Operating personnel must read and understand the safety guidelines and operating 

precautions in this chapter prior to operating the oven. 

The operators must follow these 

instructions to prevent injuries and to safeguard their health, environment, and the materials being 

treated in the oven, as well as to prevent damage to the oven. Failure to adhere to the safety 

guidelines and operating cautions, deliberately or through error, is a hazardous behavior on the 

part of the operator. 

Le fonctionnement sûr du four dépend des actions et du comportement des opérateurs du four. Le 

personnel d'exploitation doit lire et comprendre les consignes de sécurité et les précautions 

d'utilisation de cette section avant d'utiliser le four. Les opérateurs doivent suivre ces instructions 

pour prévenir les blessures et protéger leur santé, leur environnement et les matériaux traités dans 

le four, ainsi que pour éviter d'endommager le four. Le non-respect des consignes de sécurité et 

des précautions d'utilisation, délibérément ou par erreur, est un comportement dangereux de la 

part de l'opérateur.

Failure to follow the guidelines and instructions in this manual may create a protection 

impairment by disabling or interfering with unit safety features. This can result in damage 

to the unit and injury, death, or negative effects on the health of the oven operators. 

 

Follow all national laws, regulations, and local ordinances in your area regarding the use of 

this unit type and the applications you are using it for. If you have any questions about 

national and local requirements, please contact the appropriate agencies. 

 

Use only approved accessories. Do not modify system components. Any alterations or 

modifications to your unit not explicitly authorized by the manufacturer can be dangerous 

and will void your warranty.
